The fabulously fragrant Peruvian Daffodil is an exotic-looking, white wildflower native to South America. The petals of these trumpet-shaped blooms command many furls and unfurls, pairing well with the strappy, arching leaves. Easy to grow and simply striking in both the garden and the vase. Hardy in Zones 7-10, the Peruvian Daffodil is considered an annual in all other zones, but can be lifted and stored for planting the following year.(Hymenocallis festalis)
To determine if a plant is sufficiently cold hardy, the USDA created numbered zones indicating winter low
temperatures; the lower the zone number the colder the winter.
If the coldest winter temperature expected in your area is -15°F (zone 5) then any plants rated zones 3-5 will
survive the winter temperatures in your area.
If you live in very warm winter areas (zones 9-11) plants with zones 3-4 ratings are not recommended. The lack
of freezing winter temperatures do not provide a time for winter dormancy (rest).
Peruvian Daffodil is one of the great wildflower blooms of the South American tropics. They're famous for their very strong sweet fragrance, they grow quickly, and they make a wonderful show in the garden or in a vase.
